Replying to: egoh (Jan 24, 2006 3:31 pm) YES!!! It's a great deal!   Here in Dallas/Fort Worth that's a price which is $26 under invoice. If the dealer actually has the car you want and you're in the market to buy now...pull the trigger.   ZOOM ZOOM!!!

Replying to: ostiaantic (Jan 20, 2006 4:55 pm) I can empathize with your situation. I went to a local dealer here in Brooklyn, NY and put down a deposit on a 3s hatchback with a manual transmission. Within a day or so, I was given a VIN # of the car I want, and told it should arrive within a day or so. That was nearly a month ago. Since then, I've been told that the car is "inbound" which apparently means it could be anywhere between the dealer's lot and the imagination of a Mazda engineer in Japan. I've been promised a follow-up call next week, but I suspect the dealer is going to offer me a vehicle loaded with options I don't want. So I think you are wise to hold off on a deposit, and give the Matrix another look. Oh, and for what it's worth we are not in competition with each other as the only colors I will not accept are red or black. Good luck!

Replying to: bk40 (Jan 27, 2006 10:10 am) Why isnt the dealer trying to get one from another dealer?? I took a look at the dealer locater and unless the 5 door you want is really odd, there are cars available. The manual trans makes it a little difficult but unless your really really specific they should be able to get you a car in a few days not weeks/months.
#2324 of 4328 good price on 2006 mazda3 s model ??? by socra Jan 27, 2006 (11:56 am)
I am in the market to purchase 2006 mazda3 s model with manual trans. I went to several dealerships and sent out some request for a price quote. I received a price offer of $17.700, is this is fair price for this model? I realize that the msrp for s model is something like $16,800. What would be a fairly good price for this car? I am located in southern california region. I would appreciate any advice or experience shared. Thanks in advance. Replies to this message: mikezoomzoom (Jan 27, 2006 1:44 pm)

Replying to: socra (Jan 27, 2006 11:56 am) Oops..you forgot to add the destination charge on your MSRP.   Also, keep in mind there is not a large margin in the Japanese entry level compact cars such as the Mazda 3, Toyota Corolla, and Honda Civic. Rarely is there any significant manufacturer's support to the dealers as well.   The MSRP, including the destination charge, on a 2006 Mazda 3 S Sedan with no additional cost options is $17,440.   Add $950 if you want the automatic transmission(AT2) on a S Sedan or Hatchback.   Make sure you clarify to any dealer what you're seeking in regards to an S, S Touring, or S Grand Touring. This is an avenue of misunderstanding we deal with every day.   ZOOM ZOOM!!!

Replying to: bk40 (Jan 27, 2006 10:10 am) If you don't mind my asking, did you negotiate the price on the car before you put the deposit down? One dealer told me he would "get the car" I wanted if I put down a deposit. I told him I would have to agree on the price on the specific car first. I never heard back from him.   Did you have to pay an extra fee because they had to order it?

#2327 of 4328 mazda 3 grand touring manual-hard to find-bestprice by beach70s Jan 29, 2006 (3:16 pm)
Replying to: simisky (Jan 13, 2006 5:08 am) You had agood deal. I'dlike tohear from others about best prices as I want a GT (need the Xenon), don't care if 4 or 5 dr, but want manual. hard to find so how low can I expect? Offered 3% above invoice best so far. How are dealers selling below invoice if no breaks to dealership? Also never cared about color before as long as not black or red, but the 3 colors are too flashy for me, so silver nd gray left. Does the driver seat rise up or down, forgot to check.

#2329 of 4328 Does Mazda still offer recent graduate discount? by redaix Jan 30, 2006 (6:46 am)
Hi,   i plan to buy a Mazda3 i touring. One of my friends who bought his mazda last April said that Mazda had discount for recent college graduates. However, the dealer told me that there is no graduates program anymore. I am wondering if this is true. Replies to this message: mikezoomzoom (Jan 30, 2006 9:14 am)

Replying to: redaix (Jan 30, 2006 6:46 am) The college grad rebate ended on July 31st, 2005.   In its previous form it was able to save an additional $500 if you were graduating from a two or four year school within the next six months. Or if you have graduated from a two or four year school within the past two years. Of course, documents had to be verifiable.   There is no public college grad rebate anymore. Mazda has gone to some sort of direct marketing based on school registrars and specific criteria.   I'm unaware of what the exact parameters are.   ZOOM ZOOM
